So he can counter Standard topspin shots with Tsubame Gaeshi, Smashes with Higuma Otoshi, Counters players who get close to the net with Hakugei, Counters intense spin with Kagero Zutsumi, Counters MOST shots without enough topspin with Hecatoncheires no Monban and Cordballs with Hoshi Hanabi.

All we are missing is backspin, power, lob, serve and drop shot counters.

So the perfect set of counters would counter: topspin, backspin, intense spin, smashes, serves, power, cord balls, drop shots, net play, lobs, ball illusions and the next shot. What I mean by the next shot is what Phantom and 5th Counter do.

Have fun making 12 counters Fuji!

I imagine 6th Counter could possibly work on a drop shot.
In the movie, was the return a drop shot or a standard return?

Sure Ochi would be killed by Rai but what about Mouri. Considering he managed to return a Zero-shiki Serve, he might figure out a way to return Rai.

No, even if he returned Zero Shiki, both shots aren't the same. You need to have enough power to overcome Rai, and since when Niou turned into Kabaji and hit a shot and their rackets were blown away, Rai, who is much stronger, would destroy their racket guts, and hurt their arms.

If you don't have enough power, Rai can't be returned.

No, if you have the right technique, you can return anything. Yukimura effortlessly returned Rai with the racquet butt without the need for much power.
